Constructing a Vessel: Process

For this project, I wanted to make a my wooden vessel something that could fit comfortably in someone's hand to imitate the objects it would be holding.

First, I cut the shape of my box, and separated the lid and flow of the box from it's body.















Then I drew, and cut out the inside of the box.


I rounded out the edges of the lid of my box and glued the sides back together.
Next, I glued the floor of the box and the body of the box back together.
I then started carving finger notches on the lid of my box.
After TONS of sanding, and a coating of Polyurethane I had my final product

Stayed tuned.
